Dallas Police Chief's Crackdown on Trigger-Happy Cops Leaves Many Fuming

Well, dang, Fuller ya gotta go and poke holes in everything he said?

funny, because in one county in Washington all police related deaths are brought before an actual jury and the family of the slain gets to have their own lawyer question the officer and witnesses, and when this jury usually acquits officers then the anti-cop people just say "well the jury was rigged" some people are never happy regardless of the set up.

The LE industry will strive to stop any attempt by any non-LE industry entity from penetrating the Blue Wall. A cop must never be indicted from the outside, but thrown under the bus by his peers.....for the good of the department.

Hahaha.....Fuller beat me too it.

It is rigged who picks the "jury"...

Ian Birks victims family had no say in it but the parasite living symbiotically with the other parasites did.

A grand jury that is independent of judges and prosecutors was the norm many years ago. That needs to be brought back.


Here is a case in Houston were it worked and really irked off the prosecutor.....http://www.lewrockwell.com/2011/11/william-norman-grigg/rogue-grand-juries/

In June, Culbertson and two of her colleagues quit their jobswith the HPD. “We could no longer choose between a paycheck and our integrity,” Culbertson explained.

I love that good apples deciding the barrel is rotten!

It's that way with any 'special interest group'. They see it as them versus the world.

We know from history that the 'priest class' was quick to use their power against the people, all the while proclaiming their holiness and morality.

Ditto the Catholic church. I'm actually worried for the life of the first good Pope we've had for a while. (the predecessors weren't necessarily bad, just ineffectual). Ask anyone who is among the most corrupt in Italy and they'll say 'the Vatican'.

Cops are no different. THey've gotten power and will do anything to keep it, even subvert their mission. And like most people who do evil acts, don't see themselves as 'evil', just misunderstood.

The Sergeant on the recent case of the young thug who hit this old lady as she walked out of a store and youtubed it said she thought it was just harassment. OMG, they have the kid on tape smacking this old lady in the head. Yes he had a snowball in his hand, but he hit her in the head - there was no 'snowball throwing'. Yet the female cop said it wasn't 'substantial injury' and couldn't be prosecuted. On tape, hit to the head, a crime against the elderly and she feels it's ok. Bet she wouldn't do that if it was HER grandmother.

We're like a group of Diogenes with lamps of the 2nd and 4th Amendment looking for an honest cop. Good luck, fellas, you ain't finding one.

People often ask me why I film the police. One simple answer is because the police lie and commit crimes.

We need more people filming the police.

YOU should film the police too.
